1972.0. "Help with vetta innovator computer" by TOPTEN::PLEVA (Ron, from Princeton NJ) Tue Jun 18 1991 12:44

 	Can someone post the setup instructions for a Vetta  Innovator
    cyclocomputer?  As mine was included installed on my bike when I
    purchased the bike second hand and I did not receive the instructions.
    
    I am planning to replace the batteries as the unit is miss calculating
    average speed.

	Ron,

	It may not be your batteries. I purchased my Innovator about two years
	ago when they first came out. I've had problems with my average speed
	every since then. I brought it back to the dealer, but he said it's a
	known problem with the one's released in the first few shipments, and
	since Vetta has corrected the problem. I noticed the problem usually
	occurs whenever I go over 40/50 miles. At that point the Avg Sp.starts
	incrementing quickly. 

	If you still what to replace your batteries send my your home address
	and I'll mail you a copy of the instructions.

    re:-1
    Mike,
    
    Thanks for the info,  my symptom just started happening, after 1
    year and over 1500 of seemingly accurate average speed calculations.
     I just noticed the problem last Saturday during a 80 mile ride
    at around 70 miles I checked the average and it was 19.4 and this
    was close to my partners reading of 19.3.  By the time I finished
    the ride the average dropped down to 17.4, and I sprinted the last
    5 miles at over 24 mph, if anything my average should have gone
    up.......
    
    I read an earlier note regarding an apparent contact problem with
    the batteries.
